step 1 - Cut out some flowers from the paper #04. I cut out a large selection of all the different flowers to create my clusters with.

step 2 - Cut a strip 3" (7.5cm) wide from the striped paper piece. Trim the barcode off as well to use from this sheet. Adhere the striped piece flush at the top of your background cardstock piece, and the barcode strip just below it.

 

Create some hotfoil Poppy elements to use on your layout.

step 3 - Heat your foil stamp in the GoPress and Foil. Place gold foil face down onto the hot stamp. 

step 4 - Place patterned paper on top of the foil and then add your shims. I used the back of paper #08 as well as some other scraps to foil my flowers onto. Send the stacked foil stamp through your GCut machine.

   

step 5 - Remove the shims and the foiled paper to reveal the foiled image. Remember to keep your foiled scraps to use - I show you how I recycle these at a later stage. 

 

step 6 - Cut out your foiled flowers - I made some in gold and some in turquoise. See how the patterned paper background adds interest to the foiled flowers.

 

Assemble your layout by adding your matted photo. Then adhere your flowers clusters and finish off by layering the foiled poppy flowers on top. Add pearls, diamante and stamped details to your layout. Add some ephemera elements as well.
